VISTA, Calif. -- A 19-year-old Hollywood High School student who allegedly had sex with a 13-year-old Oceanside girl he met on MySpace.com must stand trial on four counts of committing lewd acts upon a child, a judge ruled Tuesday.

Luis Freddy Alvarado, who has posted bond, faces 11 years in prison if convicted of the charges, defense attorney George Bye said outside court.

After a half-day preliminary hearing, during which the alleged victim testified, Vista Superior Court Judge Timothy Casserly ruled that there was enough evidence to order Alvarado to stand trial.

The girl, identified only as Jane Doe, testified that she met Alvarado on the popular Web site. She said she lied about her age, listing herself as 14, in order to register on MySpace.com because "that's the age you have to be to register."

The teen said she arranged to meet the defendant in Oceanside and directed him to the street where she lives, then met him near a friend's home.

The two then drove in Alvarado's black Ford SUV to the beach and took a walk on the sand, she said.

"We kissed," the girl testified. "He stuck his hand in my pants."

She said she initially did not allow the defendant to touch her intimately but kept kissing him.

"I would pull his hand away," she said.

After walking on the beach for about 30 minutes, the two returned to his SUV, got into the back and continued kissing, then started caressing each other, she testified.

Eventually he undressed her and they had sex, the girl said.

"I said no and then I said, 'I'm not ready,' and I didn't want to," she testified.

The teen said she refused the defendant a number of times but finally gave in, after removing a tampon she had inserted because she was due for her period.

After they had sex, the defendant drove to a Baskin-Robbins and they had ice cream before he dropped her off down the street from her home, the girl said.

She testified that she quickly regretted having sex. The defendant later sent her an instant message apologizing for his behavior, she said.

Under cross-examination, the teen said she never told the defendant her age and wore make-up when they met.

Oceanside police Detective Marilyn Priem testified that a medical examination of the girl revealed bruises and broken capillaries around the vagina.

Priem also said that when she drove to Hollywood High to pick up the suspect, he told her he knew why she was there.

The defendant told police that he originally thought the alleged victim was 16 but checked her MySpace profile and discovered she listed her age as 14, the detective said.

Alvarado also admitted that the girl had told him "no" a number of times before they had sex, Priem said.
